Su Yuan took out his phone and looked at the time.

It was already 10 o'clock in the evening.

He had never thought that time in school could pass so quickly.

Seeing Su Yuan looking at his phone, Song Xiaoxia asked softly: "What time is it? Are the lights going to be turned off soon?"

"It's still early." Su Yuan put down his phone expressionlessly.

Song Xiaoxia looked at him blankly, and suddenly smiled: "You are still like this..."

"What?" Su Yuan didn't understand what she said and asked back.

"It's just that every time you lie, your face will be stiff like this, without any expression. It seems that even the most powerful psychologists and polygraphs can't tell that you are lying..." Song Xiaoxia smiled and said: "But in fact, anyone who knows you will know that you are lying when they see you put on this expression."

"Really?" Su Yuan felt his nose sour and pulled out an ugly smile: "I thought I was a good liar..."

At this time, Gao Wenyi, who had finished his work in the corridor, also returned to the dormitory.

When he saw Song Xiaoxia lying on the bed tied up, he first exclaimed in an exaggerated way: "Sister!"

Then he quickly walked to Song Xiaoxia's side and squatted down, saying with a look of surprise: "Sister, the romance novel you lent me last time is so good, the male lead is so manly!!!!"

"The illustrations with abdominal muscles in it make me drool... Can I return it to you a few days later?"

"It doesn't matter, you can read it as long as you want..."

"In that case, am I the kind of person who borrows and doesn't return it? I will definitely return it to you in two days."

Without waiting for Song Xiaoxia to speak, Gao Wenyi said to himself: "Why do I feel that your face doesn't look good, sister? Did Brother Su tie you too tightly? These stinky men don't know how to be gentle with women..."

Gao Wenyi chattered and pulled Song Xiaoxia to talk, trying to dilute the fear in her heart.

But Song Xiaoxia was very calm from beginning to end, and responded to Gao Wenyi with a smile.

Qi Yinhong and Ye Haoyu also came in, standing by and watching the two chatting silently.

The last person to come in was Zhang Yang, who was holding a few talismans in his hand. He walked to Su Yuan and said, "The outside is full of them. There are still a few left. You can put them on her..."

Su Yuan nodded, took the talisman and asked, "Where to put it?"

"Whatever." Zhang Yang said, "The top of the head... limbs, wherever there is space."

Su Yuan was not sure whether this would work, but he still carefully put these talismans all over Song Xiaoxia's body.

He didn't understand why so many people would pray to gods and Buddhas before.

Now he understands.

When people face difficulties that they cannot solve, they can only place their hopes on gods.

Many times it's not whether you believe it or not, but you have no choice but to believe it...

Song Xiaoxia puffed up her cheeks and blew up the talisman covering her face, looking at Su Yuan pitifully: "Can you take this one off your forehead first... wait until the lights are turned off? It's hard to breathe..."

Su Yuan couldn't bear to see her in pain, thinking that it didn't make any difference, so he helped her take off the talisman on her forehead.

Song Xiaoxia raised her head with difficulty, looked at her whole body covered with talismans, and smiled bitterly: "I feel like a zombie..."

Su Yuan took out his mobile phone again and took a look.

There were only ten minutes left before the lights were turned off...

The atmosphere in the dormitory became a little dull, and even Gao Wenyi didn't know what to say. His legs were shaking due to excessive tension.

Song Xiaoxia also realized this from the expressions of everyone, her breathing gradually became rapid, and her fists subconsciously clenched tightly.

"Su Yuan..." Her voice was trembling, but she was still pretending to be calm: "I...I want to call my mother..."

"Is it...Is it necessary?" Su Yuan felt like he was telling his last words, but seeing Song Xiaoxia's pleading eyes, he still took out his phone: "I really can't do anything about you...What's the number?"

Song Xiaoxia read out a number.

Su Yuan dialed it and put the phone next to Song Xiaoxia's ear.

The phone rang slowly, and after a while, the call was connected, and Song Xiaoxia's mother's voice came from the other end: "Hello, who is this?"

"Mom..." Song Xiaoxia's tone was finally no longer calm.

"Xiaoxia?" Xia Dong on the other end of the phone looked at the caller ID in confusion and said: "Why don't you call me with your own phone?"

Song Xiaoxia took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down: "My phone is out of battery, so I borrowed my classmate's to call you......"

"Is that so..."

The daughter often called her in the dormitory, and Xia Dong didn't think much about it: "You damn girl, you left so hurriedly in the evening, have you eaten dinner? I just bought strawberries in the afternoon and didn't have time to pack them for you. Let me tell you, the strawberries are as big as fists. If you don't come back early after school the day after tomorrow, your sister will definitely eat them all for you..."

The dormitory was quiet, with only Xia Dong's nagging voice on the other end of the phone.

It sounded like a scolding, but anyone could hear the love and pampering contained in the words.

"Mom!" Song Xiaoxia's eyes were slightly red, and she interrupted Xia Dong: "What are you doing?"

"Me?" Xia Dong was stunned, then smiled slightly and said: "What else can I do, put on a mask, watch TV..."

"Where's my sister?"

"Xiaodong went to bed a long time ago. What time is it now? I have to go to kindergarten tomorrow."

"Where's Dad? ”

“Your dad is on a business trip and should be back on Saturday.” Xia Dong noticed something was wrong: “Xiao Xia, what’s wrong with you?”

“No…it’s okay, I just…I just miss you a little bit, Mom.”

Song Xiao Xia’s voice was intermittent, and her nasal tone became heavier.

On the other end of the phone, Xia Dong’s voice suddenly turned cold: “What’s the matter, did someone bully you?”

“No…I just miss you.” Song Xiao Xia tried her best to control her emotions.

“Really?”

“Really!”

“You damn girl, I just told you to stay at home, but you insisted on going back to school, and now you’re calling me here saying you miss me…”

Xia Dong’s voice softened and became a little gentle, “Then mom will come to school to pick you up, ask for leave for you, and then wake up Xiao Dong, and the three of us will go to KFC, okay? Don't cry..."

Song Xiaoxia bit her red lips tightly with her teeth, tears welling up in her eyes, her chest rising and falling, "No... No, Mom, I just miss you... Don't come, it's too late, I... I'm fine, I'll be back the day after tomorrow, the lights are about to go out, I'm going to sleep... Good night, Mom."
